The fuck is wrong with Angloids. At least in French there is a strict correspondence between numerous of expressing a single sound with different graphemes. Like, /o/ can be written as o, au, aux, eau, etc. You have to know how a word is spelt to write it down; but if you can pronounce any word written if you know the general rules.

In English it's fucking random even if it's not the borrowings.

From the point of view of anyone who doesn't have a degree in Old English philology yes, it's random.

English should have used modernized runic script instead of latin alphabet and been better off with the right sounds.

Yeet(s)

Of course not. Wordsworth till I die. Keats does have some beautiful language but I like Wordsworth's vision more.
